Introduction • Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise from optical amplifiers makes the propagating field intensity time-dependent even in constant-envelope modulation formats such as DPSK. • Random intensity fluctuations, through self-phase modulation (SPM), cause nonlinear phase noise [1], which is the dominant impairment in single-channel DPSK. • Most existing analytical models focus on the statistics of the nonlinear phase noise.

Tx Matched filter SPM only State of the Art • K.-Po Ho [2] computed the probability density function (PDF) of nonlinear phase noise and derived a BER expression for DPSK systems with optical delay demodulation. Very elegant work, but: • model assumes zero chromatic dispersion (GVD) • does not account for the impact of practical optical/electrical filters on both signal and ASE [2] K.-Po Ho, JOSAB, vol. 20, pp. 1875-1879, Sept. 2003. A. Bononi, China-Italy Workshop Photon. Commun. & Sens.5/21
Tx OBPF LPF no SPM State of the Art • Wang and Kahn [3] computed the exact BER for DPSK (but provided no algorithm details) using Forestieri’s Karhunen-Loeve (KL) method [4] for quadratic receivers in Gaussian noise : • Model accounts for impact of practical optical/electrical filters on both signal and ASE • ....but ignores nonlinearity: it concentrates on GVD only. [3] J. Wang et al., JLT, vol. 22, pp. 362-371, Feb. 2004. [4] E. Forestieri, JLT, vol. 18, pp. 1493-1503, Nov. 2000. A. Bononi, China-Italy Workshop Photon. Commun. & Sens.6/21
N Tx OBPF LPF The PG Approach • Also our group [5] computed the BER for DPSK using Forestieri’s KL method. Our model: • besides accounting for impact of practical optical/electrical filters • also accounts for the interplay of GVD and nonlinearity, including the signal-ASE nonlinear interaction using the tools developed in the study of parametric gain (PG) • is tailored to dispersion-managed (DM) long-haul systems [5] P.

Having shown the plausibility of the Gaussian assumption for the RX field, it is now enough to evaluate its power spectral density (PSD) to get all the needed information, to be passed to the KL BER routine. • A linearization of the dispersion-managed nonlinear Schroedinger equation (DM-NLSE) around the signal provides the desired PSDs, according to the theory of parametric gain.

Our BER Algorithm Steps of our semi-analytical BER evaluation algorithm: • Rx DPSK signal obtained by noiseless BPM propagation (includes ISI from DM line) • ASE at RX assumed Gaussian. PSD obtained either from linear PG model (small FNL) or estimated off-line from Monte-Carlo BPM simulations (large FNL). Reference FNL for PSD computation suitably decreased from peak value to average value for increasing transmission fiber dispersion (map strength). • Data from steps 1, 2 passed to Forestieri’s KL BER evaluation algorithm, suitably adapted to DPSK.

More information on our work: www.tlc.unipr.it Conclusions • Novel semi-analytical method for BER estimation in DPSK DM optical systems. • The striking difference between OOK and DPSK is that in DPSK PG impairs the system at much lower nonlinear phases, when the linear PG model still holds. Hence for penalties up to ~3 dB one can use the analytic ASE PSDs from the linear PG model instead of the time-consuming off-line MC PSD estimation. • Hence our mehod provides a fast and effective tool in the optimization of maps for DPSK DM systems.
